Size distribution of chemically extracted quartz used to characterize fine-grained sediments

Creator:: Dauphin, J. P. (Joseph Paul)
Abstract:: Quartz is an ubiquitous component of marine sediments. Textural characteristics of this component reflect the dynamics of its transport and at the same time are indicative of its source. Quartz may be extracted from marine sediments by means of a sodium pyrosulfate fusion and hydrofluosilicic acid dissolution without significantly modifying...

Ecological significance of dinoflagellate bioluminescence

Creator:: Esaias, Wayne E.
Abstract:: The nature of the bioluminescence of Gonyaulax catenella is similar to that observed for other dinoflagellates in culture, showing photoperiod-entrained rhythms of luminescence and stimulability with relatively constant luminescent capacity during scotophase. G. catenella is very sensitive to stimulation and photoinbibition. The nature of the response to stimulation by bubbling...

The abundance, distribution, and ecology of the Tanner crab, Chionoecetes tanneri Rathbun, on the southern Oregon continental slope

Creator:: Oliver, Brian Lee
Abstract:: Eleven cruises were conducted on the Oregon continental slope from April 1973 to March 1975 to assess the biology and ecology of the Tanner crab, Chionoecetes tanneri Rathbun. Bathymetric and seasonal analysis of the distribution of adult Tanner crabs west of Coos Bay, Oregon, revealed no segregation of sexes or...

The response of a marine meiofaunal assemblage to experimental manipulations of sediment microtopography

Beach profile changes and onshore-offshore sand transport on the Oregon coast

Creator:: Aguilar Tunon, Nicolas A.
Abstract:: Two beaches with significant differences in grain size and thus in beach profile morphology and response to wave conditions were studied on the Oregon coast. Gleneden Beach, just south of Siletz Spit and Lincoln City, has a median grain size of 0.36 mm (medium sand) and a steep beach face...

Shoreline changes due to jetty construction on the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Lizarraga Arciniega, Jose Roman
Abstract:: Patterns of beach erosion and accretion due to jetty construction are examined for the coast of Oregon. All jetty systems are included with the exception of those on the Columbia River, making a total of nine systems. All evidence indicates that these areas of the Oregon coast are experiencing a...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: (Shepard and Wanless, 1971). It has thus been well established that significant erosion and deposition

Along-coast variations of Oregon beach-sand compositions produced by the mixing of sediments from multiple sources under a transgressing sea

Creator:: Clemens, Karen E.
Abstract:: Heavy mineral compositions of sands from Oregon beaches, rivers and sea cliffs have been determined in order to examine the causes of marked along-coast variations in the beach-sand mineralogy. The study area extends southward from the Columbia River to the Coquille River in southern Oregon. The heavy-mineral compositions were determined...
